- Synopsis
- Fear can inhibit action, even for the most daring innovators. Another pernicious effect of fear on potential iconoclasts: it can interact with the perceptual system and change what a person sees (or thinks he sees). When this occurs, the danger is not only the inhibition of action, but choosing the wrong course of action altogether. This chapter describes the strategies of trail-blazing iconoclasts for controlling fear (especially the fear of social isolation) that comes with the territory of challenging conventional thinking.
